Driving fossil fuel using automobiles for instance. Or using airosol(sp) products. People need their material goods. People are addicted to the internet, their cellphones, their TV's, their cars, ect.

So in the long run, we're our worst enemy, as well as our best ally. God gave us a choice, this is what we've chosen.
i'd say your second solution is pretty much unrealistic too.. maybe if people lived 500, 600, 700 years they'd care a little bit more about what they're doing to the planet..... but nope, you're lucky if you live 100, and not too much is really going to change in that ammount of time... atleast that's my guess at why people know the dangers of such things and still use them... because by the time anything happens as a result of our destructive behaviors, they'll be dead...
